The effects of compressibility on the pressures on a body of revolution and on the aerodynamic characteristics of a wing-nacelle combination consisting of the body of revolution mounted on a swept-back wing

Memorandum presenting an investigation of the effects of compressibility on the forces, pitching moments, and surface pressures on a wing-nacelle combination. The leading edge of the wing was swept back 37.25 degrees and the nacelle was a body of revolution with a fineness ratio of 6.5. The effects of compressibility on the surface pressures and on the drag of a body of revolution similar to the nacelle were also determined.
